Turn off UEFI in BIOS of RX1330 M4

Hi,

We recently bought an RX1330 M4 server.
Is it possible to turn off UEFI in the BIOS of this server?
It was possible on the M3 servers but we can't find the option on the new M4.

Hi again Harry.

Please read below:

RX1330 M4 BIOS doesn't have 'legacy BIOS mode' implemented. BIOS operates only in UEFI Mode.

Let me know if we can be of further assistance.

Thank you.

Hi Nuno,

Thank you for the quick answer !

Our customer now has the following problem.
They tried flashing an older bios version which was accepted by the server but now no usb port is working.

This means they can't connect anything to perform a reflash of the current bios.
Do you maybe have a solution how they can reflash the bios ?

Hi Harry,

BIOS update should still be possible via iRMC. You will need a LAN connection to the server's Service LAN Port and a supported web browser for a convenient update process.

You can get more information here: http://manuals.ts.fujitsu.com/index.php
Simply search for "irmc s5".

Regards,
Burkhard

In M4 Primergy Servers you can UPDATE BIOS anyway by pendrive.
You need a USB Stick not necessarily formatted: it's all described in the "EfiFlashEfiUsage.txt" file you will find in the ZIP archive called ADMINPACK, that you usually download from support website.

You only have to put in a pendrive the folder called EFI, you will in this way create a fully UEFI COMPLIANT Bootable USB Stick.

Then you can boot and update BIOS!

Regards, Andrea
